Modern humans descended from not one, but at least two ancestral populations that drifted apart and later reconnected, long before modern humans spread across the globe. Using advanced analysis based ...
Groundbreaking research reveals that human microbes can trigger genetic brain activity in other species, suggesting our ...
The pelvis is often called the keystone of upright movement. It helps explain how human ancestors left life on all fours ...
To Shakespeare’s Hamlet we humans are “the paragon of animals”. But recent advances in genetics are suggesting that humans are far from being evolution’s greatest achievement. For example, humans have ...

Researchers have reconstructed ancient herpesvirus genomes from Iron Age and medieval Europeans, revealing that HHV-6 has ...
But some Neanderthal DNA helped modern humans survive and reproduce, and thus it has lingered in our genomes. Nowadays, ...
A lost chapter in human evolution has been revealed after an analysis of modern DNA found that we come from not one but two ancestral populations—ones that drifted apart and later reconnected long ...
Researchers at the University of California have created a novel data structure and compression method that allows ...
Ancient DNA reveals that childhood viruses lived with humans for thousands of years, reshaping how we understand human and ...
